Russian plan: Mail Putin's semen to 'every citizen' in the country

Russian plan: Mail Putin's semen to 'every citizen' in the country by Kevin Whiteman
In what may be a case of a Russian lawmaker mistakenly being under the impression that The Boys from Brazil was a DIY self-help film, and not a political thriller, a member of the nation’s Duma is floating the idea of mailing President Vladimir Putin’s “genetic material” to every citizen of the Federation.

As reported by the Business Standard (of New Delhi, India) and also by the New York Daily News, both on Nov. 8, 2014, as if the forcible seizing of the Crimea wasn’t enough, there is officially on the table a proposition to proliferate the progeny of the pint-sized president via the postal system.

Yelena Borisovna Mizoulina, the Chairwoman of Parliamentary Commission on Women’s Affairs, Children and Family formally introduced to the Russian Parliament, technically known as the State Duma, a proposal to impregnate just as many Russian women as humanly possible by mail.

Possibly unwittingly proving that when it comes to the age-old battle between email and snail mail, there are still certain things snail mail proves to be far the superior. Case in point, Mizoulina’s asking the Duma “Every citizen of Russia will receive by mail the genetic material of the President to get pregnant from him and have a baby.”

West Michigan Medical Marijuana Conference draws local vendors, residents to Frauenthal Center | MLive.com:
"MUSKEGON, MI — Deven Halberda stood outside the Frauenthal Center for the Performing Arts waving at traffic and pedestrians while wearing a large, green costume.

The Spring Lake resident received different reactions from people because he was dressed as "Weedie" – a mascot for the first annual West Michigan Medical Marijuana Conference that runs from Friday, Nov. 7 to Sunday, Nov. 9.

"There were some people who walked up to me," Halberda said from inside the insulated costume. The outfit included five leafy points with ridged edges and two cartoonish eyes that were colored slightly red. "I got some not-so-good looks, but there have been a lot of good reactions with people giving me a thumb's up."

Border guard’s snap decision ensured joyful end to Wall

Border guard’s snap decision ensured joyful end to Wall:

One man’s quick thinking helped make the fall of the wall, 25 years ago, a peaceful event

Harald Jäger has spent the last quarter century denying that he was the man who toppled the Berlin Wall.
He has no plans to change his story now, ahead of German celebrations tomorrow to mark the hated structure’s end 25 years ago.

“It wasn’t me who opened the wall, it was the East German people gathered there that evening,” says Jäger.
Despite the border guard’s modesty, it was his snap decision, late on the evening of November 9th, 1989, to throw caution to the wind that ensured the Berlin Wall fell peacefully, joyfully.

Jäger was at work at 6pm at the border crossing at Berlin’s Bornholmer Strasse, eating a bread roll in the canteen and watching one of the most famous press conferences in history.

Ukraine accuses Russia of sending in tanks, escalating crisis

Ukraine accuses Russia of sending in tanks, escalating crisis - Yahoo News:

"KIEV/MOSCOW (Reuters) - Ukraine's military accused Russia on Friday of sending a column of 32 tanks and truckloads of troops into the country's east to support pro-Russian separatists fighting government forces.
Thursday's cross-border incursion, if confirmed, is a significant escalation of a conflict that has killed more than 4,000 people since the separatists rose up in mid-April and would call into question Russia's commitment to a two-month-old ceasefire deal.
The truce has looked particularly fragile this week, with each side accusing the other of violations after separatist elections last Sunday condemned as illegitimate by the West."

Why Sand Is Disappearing

Why Sand Is Disappearing - NYTimes.com:
Today, however, 75 to 90 percent of the world’s natural sand beaches are disappearing, due partly to rising sea levels and increased storm action, but also to massive erosion caused by the human development of shores. Many low-lying barrier islands are already submerged.

Yet the extent of this global crisis is obscured because so-called beach nourishment projects attempt hold sand in place and repair the damage by the time summer people return, creating the illusion of an eternal shore.
Before next summer, endless lines of dump trucks will have filled in bare spots and restored dunes.
Virginia Beach alone has been restored more than 50 times.

In recent decades, East Coast barrier islands have used 23 million loads of sand, much of it mined inland and the rest dredged from coastal waters — a practice that disturbs the sea bottom, creating turbidity that kills coral beds and damages spawning grounds, which hurts inshore fisheries.
The sand and gravel business is now growing faster than the economy as a whole.

In the United States, the market for mined sand has become a billion-dollar annual business, growing at 10 percent a year since 2008.

Interior mining operations use huge machines working in open pits to dig down under the earth’s surface to get sand left behind by ancient glaciers.

But as demand has risen — and the damming of rivers has held back the flow of sand from mountainous interiors — natural sources of sand have been shrinking.
One might think that desert sand would be a ready substitute, but its grains are finer and smoother; they don’t adhere to rougher sand grains, and tend to blow away.

As a result, the desert state of Dubai brings sand for its beaches all the way from Australia.

That’s one shot Condoleezza Rice took at race-baiting Democrat politicians, activists, and agitators. She took others as well.
One thing the Democrats spent a lot of time doing during the campaign was playing the “race card,” in a divisive and destructive manner, attempting to stir fear in black voters and draw them to the polls in larger numbers than the typical mid-term election usually does."

Egypt Charges Obama and Hillary with Conspiring with Terrorist Muslim Brotherhood

BREAKING: Egypt Charges Obama and Hillary with Conspiring with Terrorist Muslim Brotherhood

The Muslim Brotherhood, who took power in Egypt following the Arab Spring, were recently ousted by the Egyptian military and declared a terrorist organization.
Even still, they have been embraced by President Obama, invited into his administration, placed on a “hands off” list protecting them, and are even setting up their own official political party here in the United States.
Unfortunately, the Muslim Brotherhood ultimately seeks to implement Sharia law, and to convert or kill every Christian and Jew that doesn’t share their faith.
It should be remembered that while the Muslim Brotherhood was in charge in Egypt, Obama showered them with praise and provided billions of dollars in aid, arms, tanks and planes.

Egypt hasn’t forgotten the support offered to the Muslim Brotherhood by Obama, and has now charged Obama and Hillary Clinton for conspiring and collaborating with them and their terrorist activities. (H/T Western Journalism)
In two separate criminal complaints, Egyptian lawmakers have charged Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton with conspiring with the Muslim Brotherhood.

President Obama has been named as an accessory to crimes committed by the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, with the charge reading that Obama “…cooperated, incited, and assisted the armed elements of the Muslim Brotherhood in the commission of crimes…”.

Some of the crimes include murder, rape, torture, extortion, bribery, enslavement, and the ethnic cleansing of Egyptian Coptic Christians.
According to one of the criminal charges, Hillary Clinton was found to be working with ousted Muslim Brotherhood president Mohammed Morsi’s wife, Naglaa Mahmood, in attempting to overthrow the current leader of Egypt, General Abdel Fatah Al-Sisi.
Naglaa Mahmood has openly admitted that her relationship with the Clintons dates back to the 1980’s, and she has hundreds of recorded telephone conversations with Hillary and other White House officials.
There is also a charge that Obama and Hillary attempted to bribe the Muslim Brotherhood with $8 billion to turn over part of the Sinai Peninsula to Hamas, in order for them to launch attacks against Israel.

Obama Flashback: ‘If you don’t like my policies, go out there and win an election.’

The PJ Tatler » Obama Flashback: ‘If you don’t like my policies, go out there and win an election.’
On October 17, 2013, President Obama said:
“You don’t like a particular policy or a particular president?
Then argue for your position.

Go out there and win an election.

Push to change it.

But don’t break it.

Don’t break what our predecessors spent over two centuries building.

That’s not being faithful to what this country’s about.”

Obama’s threat to carry out a unilateral amnesty for millions of illegal aliens threatens the system that he claimed to defend just over a year ago.

And he is well aware of that.

Who blew up the rocket?

Who blew up the rocket? | KurzweilAI:
"Profits are higher in the military business than in the consumer sector.
Far higher.
But why?
Because military procurement uses a method called cost-plus.
If I make a plane that costs me $100 million to produce, you, the military, will pay me $110 million for it and guarantee me a profit.
If I manage to bulk the cost of that same plane up to $150 million, you’ll pay me $165 million and my profit will go up 30%.

The more I drive up costs, the more greenbacks I rake in.
Needless to say, under this system, the cost of all things military soars.
And the quality and capability goes down.
But quality and capability is a subject for later.
To guarantee its sweet and automatic profits, the space military industrial complex of today manipulates Senate and the Congress.
When they produce a product, they place bits and pieces of the manufacturing process in as many states as possible.
The more states, the more congressmen and senators will back the projects of the space military industrial complex in order to “save jobs.”
One project, the F-35 fighter, provides jobs in an astounding 45 states.
Senators and Congressmen defend a project like that whether it is needed or not.
Whether it is capable or not.
And whether it is high quality or not."
